The Jabba's Palace breakout in Return of the Jedi is the coolest Star Wars action sequence because it involves a tactically minimal amount of Force chicanery instead of Yoda doing 4000 flips and nonstop magic power bullshit

To create a little flower is the labour of ages. personal account: correct opinions are mine; incorrect opinions are ironic. Moonlighting as a policy director.

Rory and I have been friends for over a decade and I've purchased a challenging number of his shirts over that time but I think this is some of his best work.
Rory Blank@BoneJail
I made a new t-shirt that I think has an important message about the future and also about friendship and i think maybe you will like it

I was at an Italian restaurant earlier and they had portraits of "Italian Heros [sic]" on their napkin dispensers and one of them was Luigi Primo

We got our little cat on anti anxiety medication and she seems much happier. Unfortunately she’s also now obsessed with trying to get inside the toilet

@Project_TBONE Communists in America want a moratorium on AI because they are loyal to China.

DSA-backed Wisconsin State Representative Francesca Hong is running for governor—and she could win. bit.ly/4y2QJLP

This is a question about LLMs, energy, and the environment. It’s also a question about how states operate altogether. It’s a foundational question of the economy👇 x.com/justin_policy/…
justin lee@justin_policy
@admcrlsn She wants to stem races-to-the-bottom in state economic dev, maximize labor power in AI adoption, strengthen the fiscal health of UI, and channel public capital, including data center tax revenues, into infrastructure projects, labor-led upskilling, and resilient enterprises

Data centers, land use, energy infrastructure; francescahong.com/control-alt-de…
Labor rights within and beyond AI: francescahong.com/labor-shift
Civil and consumer rights:

This is the sauce. Fran’s campaign isn’t just a flat data center moratorium — it’s the ONLY statewide campaign (in the country?) that’s thought through data center and AI issues and how they relate to land use, economic development, labor politics, and civil and consumer rights.
justin lee@justin_policy
@admcrlsn To add, I think you’re missing here how the Hong campaign’s policy treats data centers and AI policy as entangled problems of labor and economic development. She’s developing an approach for a mid-sized state to guide social and economic AI adjustment for the public benefit

Francesca Hong For Governor@FrancescaHongWI
The @nytimes came to Wisconsin to ask whether someone like me can win here. They found a Trump voter in Wisconsin Rapids with a "No Data Center" sign in his yard, and my sign right next to it.
English
@DanRShafer That is to say: while data centers are one of the central issues of the race, Francesca’s position emerges naturally from her democratic socialism — the same is true for everyone else
English
@DanRShafer I might suggest that the campaigns’ data center positions, including but not exclusively Fran’s, are natural extensions of their ideological positions and view of politics.
English
People are underrating this. More than any momentum democratic socialism might be having, I think data center politics are the No. 1 driving factor in her ascent in the primary. That no one else in the six-candidate Democratic field is backing a data center moratorium is insane.
Politics & Poll Tracker 📡@PollTracker2024
#WisconsinGovernor NYT: Jeff Hanneman, a Republican who voted for President Trump, decided to cast his vote in the governor’s race for Francesca Hong in part because she wants to pause data center construction.

There are a few independent media outfits that disproportionately contribute to important, high-quality reporting in Wisconsin. Recombobulation Area is one of them!
Dan Shafer@DanRShafer
NEW: Since The Recombobulation Area is back to being fully independent... and this weekend is Independence Day ... and it's also the 30th anniversary of the release of the "Independence Day," we thought we'd offer up a sale. Let's recombobulate: therecombobulationarea.com/p/today-we-cel…

UPDATE: Mitch McConnell has gone to hell
and back to tear this country apart.
The Kentucky senator is not longer with us
despite his claim to be an American patriot
McConnell has gone on to meet his Maker's
Mark corporate lobbyists instead of addressing the needs of Kentuckians
English
I’m hearing that Mitch McConnell is dead
wrong about the most important questions of our time.
The former Senate leader passed a way
of regressive obstruction off as governance.
Mitch McConnell tragically lost his life
savings at the bank of national integrity

@taste_of_tbone I don’t even know who you are; yet as a complete stranger, I still feel the urge to respond to this with an absolutely exhausted “…Timothy.”
